paintwork is original but shines up well, has quite a few touched up stone chips on bonnet fr wings.
bodywork is original/untouched apart from some filler in nsr arch,lh sill would fail mot if not hidden by sill moulding,os sill is fine osr arch in my opinon is saveable with some rust.
bulkhead has some flex but rack mount is good.
mot pass had no advisories for corrosion only brake pedal travel a bit long.
runs a1

Looks lovely. 16v badge keeps people guessing, twin exit for added confusion tho. Good luck with it. Don't think you'll need it tho.

Is it wrong for me to become aroused at the digi dash, one of my greatest ever drives was me in a Renault 5 GT turbo against one of these around Cheshire! thank god the Mersey is between us and I am broke, best of luck with it..

16v badge

if you look closer it says 8V

[useless inc]

Wow that looks really nice. Quite unusual in black 98% of these seem to be red or white. Good luck with the sale!

That is stunning mate! Ive always been a ford fan and steered clear of all vauxhalls but when I had my mk3 xr3i in 1990, the lad two houses up from our farm had a red 8v and we used to race each other on most mornings and he always won in the dry but I did in the wet! Such happy memories of fantastic times when I had no mortgage or gas bills or shopping bills...just bunged me mam £25 out of £300 a week and the rest went on birds, booze, petrol and my xr3i!!
Id love to say bad luck selling it as id love to catch a train up and drive it home but my xr3 resto is in full swing. But in all honesty, the very best with the sale and thanks for the best trip down memory lane in ages.

you are safe now i can't think of anything else to take a photo of !
oh hang on,when it stops raining i might take a front wheel off and post a pic of the front leg with the original part no. sticker still attached and dated 1991

[cregs1]

Does everything work right. Ie heated seats etc. dash

Regards Bryan

[zippygte]

never got round to fitting heated seats so you could just put the correct blanks back in.dash is fine apart from dodgy (bypassed)dimmer rheostat switch.(little wheel thingy under seat switches).
everything else like windows,mirrors,hrw and boot/underbonnet lamps work a1.

weekend bump with more pics.

I'm probably understating the condition of this car, the interior is brilliant with no damaged/missing trim or clips paintwork has a nice deep shine.



no rust around the sunroof







well worth a look.

[zippygte]

anyone looking for a guide on price have a look here.
very original like mine but has no MOT and has been off the road for several years.

Probably not to that extent - but point taken that black is rare.
